LGY1J272MELA35

The LGY1J272MELA35 is a Nichicon LGY series snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitor rated at 2.7 mF (2700 µF) and 63 V. It is a snap-in terminal, radial can design engineered for applications that require sustained ripple handling and long-term stability at elevated temperatures.

Designed for industrial power supplies and ballast applications, this part delivers long-life assurance with endurance specified for 5000 hours under rated ripple current at 105°C and RoHS compliance for environmental requirements.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2.7 mF (2700 µF) capacitance at a 63 V rated voltage for bulk energy storage and smoothing on power rails.
• High-Temperature Long Life — Endurance rated for 5000 hours at 105°C when subjected to D.C. bias plus rated ripple current, supporting long-term operation in hot environments.
• Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 2 A at 120 Hz and 2.3 A at 50 kHz to support AC ripple filtering across a range of frequencies.
• Wide Operating Range — Operating temperature from −40°C to +105°C, suitable for a broad set of industrial ambient conditions.
• Snap-In Radial Package — Snap-in terminal, radial can package for PCB installation requiring a robust mechanical mount.
• Tolerance & Polarization — Capacitance tolerance of ±20% and polarized construction; suitable for DC circuit applications.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies — Bulk filtering and energy storage where sustained ripple handling and long-term thermal endurance (5000 h at 105°C) are required.
• Ballast Applications — Designed specifically to suit ballast use, providing dependable smoothing and ripple tolerance in lighting control circuits.
• General Purpose Power Electronics — DC bus smoothing, decoupling, and bulk capacitance in general-purpose industrial assemblies that use snap-in radial cans for board mounting.
